cometchat-native-placement
Purpose
Teaches Claude the five canonical placement patterns for putting chat inside a React Native app. Each pattern specifies:
- Which CometChat components to compose
- How to wire the placement into
@react-navigation/*(or Expo Router) - Platform gotchas (safe-area, keyboard avoiding, gesture handling)
- When to choose this placement over the alternatives
Ground truth: docs/ui-kit/react-native/react-native-conversation.mdx, react-native-one-to-one-chat.mdx, react-native-tab-based-chat.mdx, their expo-*.mdx equivalents, and the examples/SampleApp/ + examples/SampleAppExpo/ sample apps.
Read cometchat-native-core and cometchat-native-components before this skill — the provider wrapper chain and component catalog are prerequisites.
"What are you building?" — placement recommendation
Use this table to pick a placement. If the user says "add chat to my app" without specifying where, ask them what they're building.
